Today a friend and I made one last attempt at aestival bliss on Sunset Beach. The good news: there weren't many people around (it's so important to snag a good log!) and we got some great shots. The bad news: summer seemed to have vacated Vancouver. Up-close we looked like two plucked turkeys, deep in conversation about which type of cuisine would best bring the color back in our faces.

I'm gonna call this an extreme sport.

I like to think I'd make a great pedicurist. Just look at these ten happy customers.

The J.Crew cardigan I ordered 3-4 weeks ago has finally arrived! More photos to come in which I will be wearing said cardigan, somewhere scenic in British Columbia. Until then, it shall hang patiently in my closet, where it will be given une petite attention now and then.

Welcome to my blog! It took me a couple years to even decide to start it (more on my irresolution and perfectionism later) and now here I am... trying to think of something clever with which to start. Within this space, I shall do my best to regale you with all sorts of what-I-consider-to-be aesthetically pleasing photographs, funny and hopefully poignant stories, musings on linguistics and grammar, unsolicited book and movie reviews, and so on. Throughout all this, I will strive not to sound unreasonably narcissistic, but I can't make any promises. This is a blog, after all.
